A big thank you for all who sent replies on the above mentioned subjects they have been a great help If I can ask another question I know that the South Shields newspapers have gone under various names over the Years. My question is: has an index been made of the people that have been mentioned in these papers been made? If so. how and where might I be able to look at or make contact with them? The reason why I ask is that when I was looking at these papers in London several years ago I seem to remember a name similar to my Grandfather [Michael Collins] being mentioned in conection with some kind of march!! Again many thanks to all who have helped with my previous questions Regards Peter Collins Cheltenham UK

Peter North Tyneside library have an extensive card index of people named in the Shields Gazette which covers both North & South Shields. With more modern technology the Index to British Newspapers (available commercially online and in some libraries) has 75 references to the name in North East newspapers with 23 in the Shields Gazette. Unfortunately most of these relate to an individual in the 1880s who made regular appearances in court for being drunk and disorderly. One records his eighteenth appearance :-( John Heckels > Subject: [NMB] South Shields News Paper Recirds > > If I can ask another question > > I know that the South Shields newspapers have gone under various names > over the Years. > My question is: has an index been made of the people that have been > mentioned in these papers been made?
